well, according to legend, Zashiki Warashi is a fortune bringer as well as calamity bringer. Appease her, and luck pour down on your household, angered her, and you pretty much doomed...financially..

Beside this Zashiki Warashi is older even than the protagonist Great Grandfather (she already have that dynamite body when the great grandfather still a kid).

Yuki Onna is deadly indeed, but since Shinobu alrady tamed her, I think she's more useful to him than Yukari the useless Zashiki Warashi.

The Yuki Onna can cool down your house temperature in the summer heat, create shaved ice to sell, and she's beautiful too (common trait of her kind). In the present of Danger, she's quite formidable opponent/guardian, as long as no fire source big enough to weaken her power (like volcano).

If you against huge number of enemy, she can summon a fucking huge Blizzard in her aid (heck! even in Ushio to Tora, a Yuki Onna drove away the thunder Bakemono, before she gave up her grudge)

note: Thunder, Fire and Mirror considered as great element in Japanese folklore

so...
in Prologue : we have Zashiki Warashi
in Chapter 1 : we get to know Yuki Onna
in Chapter 2 : dunno...but I think its a blood sucker Nure Onna
in Chapter 3 : ???
in last chapter : a Succubus!!

so..in 2nd chapter a crazed Nure Onna is the culprit?
since she suck blood and the victims dry condition, let assume she attack all the victims and some one get rid of the corpse using a common way the pirates dispose their traitor member.

or may be Nure Onna guard something which been the victims target (the brand named rice) and to appease the deceased, they give them a little token of apologize?

after this volume ended, and Nure Onna somehow freed from her servitude and attach herself to the uncle, I wonder what will happen once he visit his nephew with an over jealous Yuki Onna on-guard

Finally over that chapter, to be honest it wasn't that entertaining in comparison to chapter 3 or 4 .

I think it's okay if js takes his time with this series; in two weeks time Waltraute would be out anyway, he could easily complete Heavy Object v4c1 in that time before working on Waltraute, which I think would be a blast to read
